Pros
Exposure to high acuity cases.
Kontras
When I was employed here, many promising improvements in work culture, training, and structure were made. The work was flexible and the low pay was offset by that flexibility and encouraging movement forward. This despite no real oversight, opportunity for advancement, pay raise structures, or meaningful involvement from leadership. However, recent changes have seemingly erased all positive changes and the rift between leadership and management are even more obvious and communication/structure more disorganized. Many programs are managed by unlicensed personnel and focus seems to be on bottom line despite the ethics. There are increasingly few supervisors due to lack of support and terrible pay, with dramatically less flexibility. For many, this was a place of inspiration for the work, and now that seems to be disappearing along with whatever morale existed and any flexibility that made it worth the work.
